I had an amazing morning. I passed out several hundred SOC/Fire Pioli fliers and as I'm wrapping things up and headed into the stadium a golf cart rolls up to the "These Guys Can Cook/SOC" tailgate in Lot B. They said they were instructed to stop the distribution of signs and confiscate them. I kindly told them that I knew they were just doing their jobs and I respected that but they were going to get to haul me off in cuffs before they got my signs. Then they threatened to call their supervisors at which time I invited them to call every supervisor up to and including Clark Hunt himself but they weren't going to take my signs and they weren't going to stop sign distribution.

The first golf cart was great. They understood where we were coming from and I knew they were just doing what they were told. The next two golf carts of security personnel weren't quite as understanding. I politely informed each that we were going to continue handing out signs and if they wanted to talk to me that I would be 50' away handing out signs. Eventually all 3 golf carts pulled 40' away from the tailgate and I walked towards the stadium with my group of people. This is presumably when pr_capone was detained but I was already in line to enter the stadium.

Screw this piece of crap organization for subjecting me to two fieldgoals against four touchdowns against the BENGALS. Pathetic.

I thought that Pat Mahomes was unworthy of being drafted in the first round, also, I wanted Geno Smith first overall. I also claimed that tyreek hill was undeserving of even being in the CFL. I am wrong 20x more than I'm right and I will troll this site with my uneducated football takes.

The fact that he would call out his "security" personnel to confiscate fliers and signs and 86 fans who were chanting "Fire Pioli" is an absurd course of action for him to take.

Not only is it the absolute wrong thing to do from a public relations standpoint, it speaks clearly and loudly of an individual who is both insane and utterly out-of-touch with the situation, his fan base, and his role as general manager of a football franchise.

A few weeks ago, I finally came to the conclusion that Pioli was mentally disturbed. I was perfectly serious then, and today's events have reinforced my opinion. I find it incredible that someone in his position would be so stupid ... the only possible excuse is that he is insane.

Just gotta chime in as a rival fan in support of you guys. And that dooooche Roger Goodell wonders why fans are staying home from games. Better than facing the gestapo and arrogant owners... Good luck with this. It should always be fans first.
